They mention steam in their demo video drives the primary pistons, which in turn drives a 2nd set of pistons that contour a liquid metal chamber, which in turn compresses the fuel mixture.

This is the crux of it all. Spend a second to think critically about what is going on outside of the news media echo chamber and it becomes apparent it's not about a moral stance, it's about controlling narratives and exerting pow

Do you remember Russiagate? How half the country literally believed that Trump was a puppet of Russia, and that Russia had hacked the election. Hilary Clinton wrote a book about it. I will say that Trump should act with more tact and decoru

Watch speech Bannon gave at The Oxford Union Society if you want to genuinely understand the arguments he makes. I think you'd be hard pressed not to find some of the points he makes compelling.

It works the other way around as well. The left votes for social issues that upset the established cultural state, and which in the grand scheme of things will have minimal real impact (like transgender people using any specific bathroom).

I pay about $150/mth on electricity ($1800/yr), if your numbers are to be believed, then it would take about ~13.2 years to pay off a 24k battery pack, this doesn't include the cost of the panels which would probably be anoth

What's the point of this comment, all you're doing is trivializing how people use government websites/programs. Also there is absolutely no way your effective tax rate is near 40% unless you're in the 99th+ percentile of

H igh risk endeavors in science are worth the risk because when they pay off they may shift the way we have been doing things in the past, which leads to unforeseen opportunities in the future. This is not an insightful thought, but I belie

Through out the day electricity demand fluctuates rapidly[1], talking about a 30-50% fluctuation between 6am and 6pm. I really don't understand your post, the need for reactive plants would still be needed (and used) without solar powe

You posted a website that lays out relevant electronic components supply stores in an easy to digest manner. The problem I see is that the average hobbyist might not know where to start without first knowing about that site. For instance, I

I live in Toronto, Canada where there are a bunch of independent stores that sell hobbyist electronics and seem to make a good profit doing so, so the market isn't dead. I like to buy stuff online but there have been plenty of times wh

Why waste good helicopter parts? I would have to think that the materials used in military applications are more robust than commercial. Refurbishing old parts isn't bad so long as it's done safely. The article says that the helic

I see what you are saying, but I would have to guess that it's so very rare that the authorities know for sure that a suspect has information to give, that it is almost irrelevant to debate the scenario. Not to mention, the use of the

You need to pressurize the hydrogen to 5-10 kpsi which requires a compressor in every home, this cuts efficiency. Electrolysis is also very inefficient (%65 is usually cities as the upper efficiency[1]). Most importantly the cheapest way to

I thought this was pretty interesting ( http://www.heavens-above.com/IssHeight.aspx? ) The mean height of the ISS over a two year period. I had no idea that atmospheric drag had that great an effect at a 400km altitude.
